Beschreibung:Introduction:
Blended learning seems to be an effective teaching concept in oral radiology. During the COVID-19 pandemic, blended learning shifted towards online-only learning. The aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of pandemiconline-only and pre-pandemic blended learning in three consecutive oral radiology courses (C1, C2 and C3) and to examine whether additional video-based e-learning modules (VBLMs) had a positive impact on undergraduate students' performance during pandemic semesters.
Materials and Methods: Data from 205 undergraduate dental students participating either in a blended learning or an online-only learning concept were analysed. Prepandemic blended learning comprised face-to-face seminars and access to an oral radiology platform (ORP). Pandemic online-only learning comprised online seminars, access to the ORP and additional VBLMs (two VBLMs for C1, four VBLMs for C2 and six VBLMs for C3). Through standardised e-exams at the beginning and end of each semester, performance in final exams and knowledge gain were compared between the two groups.
Results: No significant differences in scores in final exams (p = .11) and knowledge gain (p = .18) were found when comparing the pre-pandemic and pandemic groups. On course level, however, students receiving a lower number of VBLMs performed significantly worse in final exams (C1: p < .01, C2: p = .02) and showed inferior knowledge gain (C2: p < .01) during the pandemic.
Conclusions: Within the limitations of the study, the present investigation confirmed that pandemic online-only learning involving VBLMs might be as effective as pre-pandemic blended learning
